Prepare fabric for cutting

What you will need to cut fabric

Do you know how to cut fabric? What is the difference between the two main types of fabric? If you’re like me, you have probably never cut fabric — and then, when I was a kid, I asked my mother several times to teach me. She never got very far before she just gave up. But then, as a college student in the 90’s, I remember sitting in her sewing room with a sewing machine and not being able to figure out how to stitch a single piece of fabric together. It wasn’t that I didn’t want to learn; it was just that there was nothing around that would help me learn and what did was unavailable at decent prices (and where I could get it at all). So, for years I tried to outgrow my inability to sew by spending hours watching TV shows about sewing (like Sewing With Nancy) or doing needlework on old magazines (like Simplicity). It always seemed like an impossible task unless I had an expert who could show me step-by-step. Until one day, 15 years later, when my mother finally saw fit to teach me and we spent hours together making quilts together. The process wasn’t as complicated as it sounds and took very little time — but looking back at this episode and her teaching style in general made me realize just how much of an art it actually is to sew. It helps if you have someone who shares your vision for what you want your product or service to be and can help guide you through the process of getting there. So here is something we should all be able to do: get some expert advice on how best we can prepare for fabric cutting. You don’t need fancy tools or knowledge; simply plan ahead by finding resources that will help us get started with fabric cutting so that we can make our lives easier when actually cutting our fabrics: online courses that teach us precisely how each type of cutting tool works so we don’t have any wrenches thrown into our production line; learning books which cover each type of cut effectively in multiple books; manuals which walk us through each type of cutting technique in detail (we are very likely going to find ourselves needing the latter); learning materials which teach us step-by-step how each type of cutting tool works so we don’t have any wrenches thrown into our production line; embroidery patterns which cover various types of stitches so
